Top notch instruction! Do you get the same quality on every diameter?

@johnalger1924 12 күн бұрын

I love your videos. After forty years of hobbyist woodworking, in which I often design my projects and problem solve on the fly (as well as correct errors), I have slowly gravitated toward machining. However, I have been a bit intimidated at the videos that demand +/- 0.001" tolerances, at all times. I understand the need to align parts rather precisely for assembly, but I'm enough of a rebel to want to add my own artistic flair.

Very nice!! Thank you for sharing

Good explanation. Especially the emphasis on chip removal. You didn't talk about the diameter of the work piece and the tooth pitch on the knurl. Is there some ratio of diameter/circumference to tooth pitch that needs mention?

@mikelevyonline 24 күн бұрын

No, the knurl will usually track on any random diameter.

How about Stainless, or tool steel?

@mikelevyonline 25 күн бұрын

Works fine on 303. I haven’t tried other stainless alloys or tool steel, but I suspect it would produce superior results to form knurling on any material that has a tendency to work harden.

As with 'thread milling' instead of 'single point threading', a process requiring far less pressure! Minor detail, the pattern mentioned is 'helical' not 'spiral' as my Engineering Drawing teacher once insisted!

Hey Mr. Levy could you explain the benefits of this as opposed to having the cutter on the near side and upside down?

Old school woodworking. Not so sure about using finish nails for structural though. I need a stand for my arbor press but I think I'll go with scrap metal. Yes, for sure fasten it to the floor or wall.

@mikelevyonline 2 ай бұрын

Every joint is glued-all the nails could be removed and the structure would still be perfectly sound.

Hi. I also use this metod for a while now but not with a Boring bar just straight turning holder and 16ER inserts. I can do this because I can mount my Toolpost on the other side of threaded piece. This way I can thread between centres. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for a new knurling technique. Nicely done videos. One thing that you mention in passing is your parting tool made from a scrap saw blade, it would be an interesting topic for a future video. You have opened up a new future for my old saw blades! old saw

Interesting. Does cut knurling do a better/deeper job on stainless steel than a regular compression knurl ? Cheers Rob

@mikelevyonline 2 ай бұрын

I haven’t knurled stainless steel, but given the tendency of stainless to work harden, I would posit that cut knurling would produce a superior result.

@Xynudu 2 ай бұрын

@@mikelevyonline I suspect you are right. I have compression knurled stainless steel and the impress was quite shallow. Cheers Rob

Thanks Mike, I really enjoyed this video, there was excellence and entertainment in equal measure. Are there any particular benefits to using the cut knurling process rather than form knurling? It would be interesting to see a comparison - cue my next KZbin search! Subscribed 👍

@mikelevyonline 2 ай бұрын

Cut knurling produces a cleaner, crisper knurl than form knurling (at least in the home shop), will track on virtually any diameter, and doesn’t increase the workpiece diameter the way form knurling does.

Possibly, but it would require a whole lot of grinding to remove the serrations on one side and place a bevel on the other.

@andjelkocirkovic4388 5 ай бұрын

I'm not very pleased with my knurling attempts, but this video is very promising, one of those that may promote me to Home Shop Machinist one day😄My question is: what are the most common angles between horizontal plane and knurling wheel axis? This because my toolpost is standard four sided slotted prism which make height adjustment of the round tool bar more demanding. In other words: I need to know How much I will have to move knurling tool holder up and down in my tool post to compensate the pivot of the contact point?

@mikelevyonline 5 ай бұрын

If you stick with straight or box knurling, there's no need to readjust center height. For diamond knurling, the angle between the vertical plane and the plane of the knurling wheel is pretty much up to you and the diamond shape you prefer. You could start with +/- 30 degrees and see how you like it. The center height difference between the two settings will depend upon the offset of the knurling wheel contact point from the center of rotation of the tool shank. It's possible, of course, to fabricate a more sophisticated tool in which the contact point of the knurling wheel is coincident with the center of rotation.

@andjelkocirkovic4388 5 ай бұрын

That was quick, thank you very much! I appreciate your detailed answer. As the contact point between knurling wheel and the material must be at the height of the material axis, it seems that I have to put some insert under my tool post to provide space for tool height alteration..Thanks again.

Interesting video, makes me wonder about tool forces. I have a regular knurling tool, and it works in aluminium, on my little South Bend clone (9") For steel I think I would need a Scissor style tool. Maybe this could work as well on a small and weaker machine ? (Yours seem very rigid)
